You are designing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) 2012 package that imports data from a
Windows Azure SQL Database database into a SQL Server database.
The SSIS package has the following requirements:
 Every night, a very large amount of data is imported into the staging
database.
 Package processing time must be minimized.
 The package must run on its own dedicated server when it is deployed
to production.
 Transaction log activity when data is imported must be minimized.
You need to design the package to meet the requirements.
Which destination component should you use?

You are administering SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) permissions on a production server that
runs SQL Server 2012.
Quality Assurance (QA) testers in the company must have permission to perform the following tasks on
specific projects:
 View and validate projects and packages
 View Environments and Environment variables
 Execute packages
You need to grant the minimum possible privileges to the QA testers.
What should you do? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose all that apply.)

You are designing a data warehouse that uses SQL Server 2012.
The data warehouse contains a table named factSales that stores product sales. The table has a
clustered index on the primary key, four foreign keys to dimension tables, and an aggregate column for
sales totals. All key columns use the int data type and the aggregate column uses the money data type.
You need to increase the speed of data retrieval from the factSales table.
Which index type should you add to the table?

DRAG DROP
You are building a fact table in a data warehouse.
The table must have a columnstore index. The table cannot be partitioned.
You need to design the fact table and load it with data.
Which three actions should you perform in sequence? (To answer, move the appropriate actions from
the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)

You are designing a data warehouse that contains a product dimension.
The product dimension contains the original product attributes as well as the most recent set of
updated attributes. When a product is updated, the original product attributes must be preserved.
The product dimension design must:
 Support a Type 3 Slowly Changing Dimension (SCD) process
 Minimize the total storage consumed
You need to design a solution that meets these requirements.
What should you do?

You are designing a complex SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) project that uses the Project
Deployment model.
The project will contain between 15 and 20 packages. All the packages must connect to the same data
source and destination.
You need to define and reuse the connection managers in all the packages by using the least
development effort.
What should you do?

You are designing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) data flow to load sales transactions from a
source system into a data warehouse hosted on Windows Azure SQL Database. One of the columns in
the data source is named ProductCode.
Some of the data to be loaded will reference products that need special processing logic in the data
flow.
You need to enable separate processing streams for a subset of rows based on the source product code.Which Data Flow transformation should you use?

You are performance tuning a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package to load sales data from a
source system into a data warehouse that is hosted on Windows Azure SQL Database.
The package contains a data flow task that has seven source-to-destination execution trees.
Only three of the source-to-destination execution trees are running in parallel.
You need to ensure that all the execution trees run in parallel.
What should you do?

You develop a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package in a project by using the Project
Deployment Model. It is regularly executed within a multi-step SQL Server Agent job.You make changes to the package that should improve performance.
You need to establish if there is a trend in the durations of the next 10 successful executions of the
package. You need to use the least amount of administrative effort to achieve this goal.
What should you do?

You are designing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package that uses the Fuzzy Lookup
transformation.
The reference data to be used in the transformation changes with every package execution.
Common language runtime (CLR) integration cannot be enabled on the SQL Server database where the
reference table is located.
You need to configure the Fuzzy Lookup transformation in the most efficient manner.
